PostgreSQL

Hi there!

Does anybody knows how can I use Cacti with PostGreSQL?
Must I create a new database or it will create by itself?

Before I finish, I must say sorry for my english. I'm still learning it.

Hugs!

I'm having a hell of a time getting cacti working on this CentOS 4.4
box. I've got MySQL configured and running perfectly, as well as php4
(downgraded after a problem with relative include paths in php5) and
lighttpd. I've installed cacti numerous times before, but it has been
a while, and I do faintly recall myself in a similar situation.
Needless to say, I can't fix it -- so I humbly come to the list.

After the intial path checks of a fresh install, I'm sent to the login
page. Entering the default admin:admin works without any complaints,
and is logged as successful in the user_log table, however I'm put
right back at the login page. I've tried lots of things, but I can't
get past simply being sent back to the login page over and over. I'm
not a PHP guru, but I'm relatively certain the PHP sessions are being
created without issue. All other PHP applications/scripts run without
issue as well.

I'm open to any and all ideas, and hits with cluebats if I missed
something in my searches...

Thanks,
Aaron

arbitrary poll lengths in cacti proper?

just curious, if/when thewitness's patches to support arbitrary poll 
lengths will be included in cacti?

http://forums.cacti.net/about16482-0-asc-15.html

I've got a lot of cases where 1m polling would be nice, and it's really 
nice not to have to patch.  ;)

0.8.6k will be release soon and you will no longer have to patch.  And 
yes, poller intervals can go from 10 seconds to hour's or days.  You 
must first know RRDtool.

Thanks. I can't upgrade just like this, and I don't have a staging
environment for that... I'll try to fetch the patch and apply it to my
setup...

For disabling the right-clicks, I think that you have to change some
settings to let scripts receive right-clicks. But right-click isn't working
even if I allow that the there may be something else...

Re: Regenerating title_cache from title in table graph_templates_graph

Look at SVN.  There is now a script.  However, it is designed for 0.8.6k.  To use for 0.8.6j or before, you need to
browse the SVN and get the prior version.  It is in the CLI folder.

Thanks, but this wouldn't quite do what I want
(I used manual SQL commands instead, c.f. http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?t=22767), 
as it also regenerates the title field.

But if you could make running the "api_reapply_suggested_graph_title($graph["local_graph_id"]);"
line option-controllable, other people could use this script
for similiar problems after "corrupting" a 0.8.6k release' DB.

For instance, if you'd updated graph titles in graph_templates_graph directly
in the DB (possibly from data in another DB) in a way that still
used cacti's template patterns (like |host_description|-|query_ifname| - Server12), you could
then use this cli script to make those manual settings visible
by just calling update_graph_title_cache.
